Full details

Originally inspired by an 1890s embroidery design by J. H.

FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Mary Isobel pattern?

The pattern is based on a scrolling embroidery design from the 1890s created by J. H. Dearle.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

It is not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms unless sealed with a professional-grade wallpaper varnish.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Mary Isobel design is available in several colorways, including Green and Beige.

Does the wallpaper come pre-pasted?

No, this is a traditional wallpaper that requires the separate application of wallpaper paste.

How should I calculate how many rolls I need?

Measure the height and width of your walls, calculate the total area, and add 10-15% for pattern matching and trim waste.

Troubleshooting

Pattern misalignment at seams

Ensure you are referencing the vertical repeat measurement and allow for sufficient overlap during the initial hanging process.

Visible seams between sheets

Check that the wall surface is perfectly smooth; use a seam roller gently to ensure edges are fully adhered without forcing the paper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and primed with an appropriate wallpaper primer. Given the artistic nature of this paper, it is highly recommended to use a high-quality, pH-neutral adhesive to prevent long-term discoloration. Always verify that all rolls in your order share the same batch number to guarantee color consistency. For maintenance, keep the wallpaper away from direct, harsh sunlight to preserve the vibrancy of the colors. If cleaning becomes necessary, use a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp sponge; avoid using abrasive chemicals or heavy moisture which could damage the paper's surface.
